/**
 * Persistence of java.time classes as of Java 8. Excluded from persistence here
 * is {@link java.time.ZoneOffset} because that is not a static value.
 * <p>
 * The converters are portable and require <cite>JPA 2.1</cite>. In order to do
 * that a simple persistence to a {@link java.lang.String} was implemented in
 * some cases. The converters do not support special types supported by database
 * vendors, such as TimestampZ. Nor do they separate values out into more than
 * one column. If you want that, then you will have to create a custom converter
 * using the conventions of your persistence provider.
